Hello Dan,

i proposed 8 weeks just to provide buffer for eventual delays, and also to 
have some time for the needed integration after the (eventual) rush of 
changes before the code freeze. Perhaps Bogdan or Daniel have some more 
extensive patches laying around in their repositories that they want to 
merge.. :-)

But if this is not the case, and if also no new modul (that needs review and 
adaptions) shows up in the next weeks, then 4 weeks is also fine for me. We 
can easily release a new minor version, you're correct.

Cheers,

Henning
